Negative Emotions Pulling You Back

Your heart beats like a wild horse on a race, the spiral of negative thoughts running uncontrollably, the pressure in your chest tingling and burning in sensation. That's how you felt while in your bed, in your office, or in the train station while going to work. You recognize that it isn't heart attack or stroke to begin with; at last you become familiar with anxiety and panic attacks coming down again unexpectedly.

When the trauma of your past and guilt overthrows the positives, you become powerless, giving up all else to the dark sucker of energy and joy. That isn't a good thing but you can't do anything to even ease up somehow. You want to run, paralyzed in your comfort zone, too afraid to try out, and settle to confining yourself in a box of hopelessness, reaping away your strength and even your self-esteem. Again, this isn't a good thing. It never was, never is and never will.

You are obsessed of reaching a goal and desire in the fastest possible time. This is not going to work, for great things come thru a process. A process involving much time, effort and repetitive tasks that may bore you along the way. You can't complain because this is how life is set. You don't have the resources; you look at yourself inferior or superior relative to other personalities; you feel like the world is not giving you what is due for you; You no longer believe in something or Someone; You felt Divinity in power, resources and privileges. These and endless reasons are impertinent. Whatever your circumstance in life, happiness is internal. If in poverty and in your current situation, you are unhappy then no amount of money and wealth will ever make you happy. 

Detoxifying negative thoughts and behavior requires more than medication and habit. It's a continuous lifestyle choice that you have to struggle attaining. I know how hard it is to stay in total darkness locked in a room with nowhere to go. Digging deeper towards the ground, unable to escape, hiding yourself in the corner invisible to anyone. You just have to stop doing that. It's not easy, it's not really. You can cry and share your problems, find an outlet to express your emotions, make the most out of what is given in your life. 

No matter how unfair the structure and functionalities of our social world, it is irrelevant to your success and joy. Dwell on what you have and make the best out of it, what you don't possess is not a weakness but rather a challenge. With patience, smart work, effort, faith, persistence and good communication, social skills and proper disposition (attitudinal), you will succeed. Trust that the world is not going to end yet, not for as long as you have not attained self-transcendence. It takes time to travel a long distance. You may rest for a while but please do not ever quit.

Living Life One Step at a Time

Image
Where there times when you feel like you're not accomplishing something important? As if all the things that you are doing doesn't worked out as plan. Sometimes you wish to become triplet so that you can hit three stones at the same time in different places. But you are also aware that it's just not possible and crazy as it may sound, you are secretly hoping that Science will find a way to triplicate ourselves. In a time when 24-hours is simply not enough, having a clear focus is important. Prioritizing the most significant and urgent things in life is a great skill that must be embedded in our self. Saying NO to the useless, time-consuming activities that are sometimes draining is good for yourself. When the pressure to achieve more to be the best in class, in work, in sports and in so many other areas is pressing, living one life at a time is truly a rewarding  choice. So how are we going to accomplish this. I am suggesting you to use the following strategies: 1. Pr...

Understanding Autonomic Pharmacology: A Short Essay (Part 1 of 2)

by: Archimedes O. Bayquen, RPh, MPH The autonomic nervous system (ANS) has been described many years ago as a division of the peripheral nervous system. It is subdivided into Parasympathetic (Rest and Digest, Conservative and Restorative function) and the Sympathetic (fight, flight, fright, stress response). The Enteric Nervous system is also a division of the ANS consisting of Myenteric or Auerbach plexus and submucous/Meissner’s plexus. The ANS is involuntary, automatic, unconscious response. Think of whenever you breathe and whenever your heart is beating. You don’t utilize your conscious control to initiate and sustain their function as they do their job independently without your control even when you are at sleep.Most of the organs in our body are dually innervated by both branches. Only very few are not—worth mentioning are the sympathetic cholinergic sweat glands in the skin and the blood vessels. Let us very briefly take a look at how these two systems differ. In ter...

Bakit Kailangang Lumaban?

Minsan sa ating buhay, darating tayo sa puntong hindi na natin kaya ang bigat na ating nararamdaman. Sisigaw tayo, iiyak ng taimtim, papatak ang maraming luha, magtatanong kung may nakakaunawa, at maaring mag-iisip na wakasan na ang lahat. Mahirap maging "tao", mahirap ang mga balakid at problema pero sana atin ding maisip na posible itong masolusyonan.  Galing ako sa isang mahirap na pamilya ; walang trabaho ang aking ina at ang ama ko nama'y farmer lamang. Mahirap ang aking naging buhay, hindi naging madali mawalan ng baon para makapasok sa eskwela. Hindi madaling umiyak dahil wala ka ng pamasahe or pambayad ng matrikula. Minsan kong naitanong kung bakit napakatanga ng aking mga magulang, kung bakit wala silang pera at hindi nila kayang maibigay ang aming mga pangangailangan. Nakapagtapos ako sa isang public school ng elementary at sekondarya. Sa katunayan, class salutatorian ako sa Special Science Class ng isang National High School sa amin. Kahit sa sobrang hi...
